Hi sjpop,
To try and resolve the issue, please remove all of the ink tanks and print head from the printer, then ensure that the ink tanks are re-installed in the printer in the following order:
CLI-226BK (Black) | CLI-226M (Magenta) | CLI-226C (Cyan) | PGI-225BGBK (Black) | CLI-226Y (Yellow) |
Once this has been completed, please turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, and leave it out for at least 10 minutes, then plug it back in and turn it back on. If the error continues, the printer will require servicing. Please click on the Contact Us link below to obtain your servicing options.
